gold sunrise Posted August 17, 2009 Posted August 17, 2009 What does North Laurel need to do to improve in 2009/2010? What do they need to keep doing to be successful? Remember, please be constructive.
MountainThunder Posted August 17, 2009 Posted August 17, 2009 Find a way to replace Josh Seidel's 22 ppg, 8 rpg, 2 apg, 2 spg, 2 bpg, etc. They have some good athletes. I think that Wardrup & Shears can give the offense a spark, Creech can bang on the inside, Cheek will do a good job running the point. Likins will give them a little more quickness, but their depth will depend on how fast the frosh/sophs develop. Their #2 PG will probably be Carson, a freshman. They will need to run and gun a little because they won't have the size to compete with many teams that will be much bigger than they are on the inside. Coach Conway has his work cut out for him, but the think about the kids coming back is I believe they will give the effort. NL could surprise some folks who think that they won't be able to replace Seidel.
MountainThunder Posted August 18, 2009 Posted August 18, 2009 Coach Conway will have them ready! I believe that. :thumb: I also think that most will think they are down after losing a player the caliber of Seidel. He set the school scoring record and only played at NL for 3 years before signing to play at Embree Riddle in Daytona, FL. But Conway is a very good coach and will find a way for his young Jaguars to compete. I am just tickled Conway is coming back. There was a lot of talk that he would be leaving NL and possibly heading on to greener pastures. However, the last time I talked to Jim, he and his family are very happy in Laurel County and have no intention of leaving. That is good news that NL finally has some stability in the basketball program.

His friend and coach of GRC will open their season at North Laurel on Dec. 1st. I really enjoyed watching Seidel last year, very nice skilled ball player.
Augger Posted August 18, 2009 Posted August 18, 2009 Is Greg Parrett still on the coaching staff at North?
Scott Baio Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 Is Greg Parrett still on the coaching staff at North? Yes, Coach Parrett is still on staff.

I really enjoyed watching Seidel last year, very nice skilled ball player. And a terrific kid. I wish him well in college. Is Greg Parrett still on the coaching staff at North? Greg is still Conway's right hand man. Terrific guy and a very good coach.
Augger Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 Greg is a great guy, I worked with him while he was at another district several years ago.
nomorenoles Posted August 31, 2009 Posted August 31, 2009 They need to get Huff and Gilbert back from South.
MountainThunder Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 They need to get Huff and Gilbert back from South. They wouldn't be eligible at North if they did transfer due to the new county transfer rule. It doesn't matter, they are at South to stay. Gilbert's dad is the AD at South Laurel (and a very good one BTW).
MountainThunder Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 Greg is a great guy, I worked with him while he was at another district several years ago. He certainly is a great guy. A good role model for the kids as well. North has a solid coaching staff, they just need to keep the North kids at North. However, with that being said, North did pick up a transfer from South last year, Cheek who will help them quite a bit this year. Good kid and a solid PG.
Commander 25 Posted September 20, 2009 Posted September 20, 2009 NL will have another good year IMO. They still have Wardrup and I know that they lost Seidel but someone else will step up.
